This place needs to be torn down.

I room felt dirty, smelled like smoke and one of the windows was open and it was not discovered as being open until the next morning when the curtains were opened. There is black mold growing on the ceiling of the bathroom. There was no trash can in the room and the tv did not work. This hotel is the worst place that I have stayed at and it has the feeling of a road side inn. Also, the parking was horrible, spaces were so tight I could barely open the door far enough to squeeze out of my suv and I am not a big person.

Hotel room was filthy and rundown. Bedclothes were thin and inadequate and not enough to keep warm. Heater not working and furniture and carpet were absolutely disgusting. There were feces behind the television stand on the carpet. I have pictures.

Corridors, rooms. Carpets filthy. Exude a strong smell of weed n cigarettes . Rooms have extremely strong filthy mold like smell, front desk hardly helpful- except for DC. Very limited and inconvenient parking. They charge $20 per night for parking! Room- Easier to park in the public parking on the street on back side, AC worked erratically , elevator worked until the fourth floor, for the rest, climb stairs w your bags! Felt very unsafe. I’d 100 % avoid this nasty place. Only good thing is its location.

I’d never stay here. The corridors, lobby, elevator smell of weed and cigarettes smoke though it’s a ‘ no-smoking’ facility, rooms filled w unbearable stench, elevator works upto the fourth floor. If you’re on the fifth, you’ve to climb stairs w your bags, ACs work erratically. Front desk reps hardly welcoming n helpful. Except for DC. Rooms also have a strong mold like smell. Very limited parking. Carpets exude filthy smell. Mattresses not convenient. Worst hotel ever stayed.

First of all this hotel is providing wrong advertisement. We chose this placed because they were saying there was microwave in the rooms but this wasn’t the case. There was a heavy smell in the hallways. The condition based on the price was horrible. I wouldn’t stay here again.

The room was small but being by myself I didn’t mind that so much. Lots of street noise and loud AC in the room. Not the cleanest bathroom I’ve encountered in a hotel. Rust stains (I think, almost looked like blood spattering) in the bath tub. Overall ok, probably would choose a different hotel in the future

Walkable convenient to restaurants, shoppes, and markets. Clean and quiet. The swimming pool was non-functional which was a slight disappointment.
